nice, but the icons are huge :blink:

How do you guys change the font on your system?

Is it a program that I can download which will enable me to do so, if so please let me know where I can find it.

Thanks.

How do you guys make this ? Looks awesome. :cool:

@jerry: Photoshop. I used a crop tool, then increased to canvas by 20 pixels horizontally and vertically, used the erase tool to rough out the edge. Finally, I created a new layer with a opacity of 95 percent and applied a 100 percent hardness brush to the two corners (with a fabric texture) and added a 1 pixel shadow to the layer.

You can accomplish the same effect with free tools like Gimp.

@Jerry : Photoshop, PSD file is available in my website, do what you want with this one.

Thanks for that :)

OR

you can D/L a program called GuiKit2dlta and ThemeChanger. se the former to convert SS .guikit files to .dlta files, then install with ThemeChanger. For FREE.

Note: SS does have a few advantages (application skins being the main one), however I don't think that it is wort the cost. If it worked more like Kaleidoscope (annoying dialog at boot, but you can use it forever), I would consider buying it; however I usually won't pay for shareware that expires.

Kool thanks for the tip :happy: Can't wait to get my iMac G5 this Thursday :woot:

[mrelusive978]

So I have been posting here for a while now, but I need to know:

How do I embed an image into my post that brings up a different pic when I click on it (i.e. preview icon for entire desktop image)? Thanks.

@PlainLazy: Which model of the iMac you Getting? I will tell you, I have had my G5 for a bit less than a year, and it is nothing short of stellar as far as performance/capabilities...I have not found anything I can do to make it slow, unlike my old B&W 500 G3 or my friend's Sawtooth Dual 500 G4, and that includes doing things like encoding four DVD's to full-frame uncompressed H.264...anyways enjoy your new Mac, I am sure you will love it!

Let's see if I can do this right:

OK I see. the IMG tag has to be nested in the URL tag. Fair enough.

I got my 17 inch 1.8GHz iMac G5 just over a week ago, and my Windows box has barely been touched, apart from to enable iTunes sharing for my music.

I got 768 in mine, because I didn't want to pay Apple's prices for RAM, and I have to say that it seems to be more than enough for anything. I was amazed at how powerful it is. I mean, I expected good things moving from a G4 to a G5, but nothing like this.

Enjoy yourself, and post screenshots with wild abandon.

The wallpaper is something I made a week ago and have been using ever since, but just now got around to posting a SS with. Its available at http://ag3nts.deviantart.com

Haha thanks for the input, your only adding to my anticipation more :woot: I don't think I'll ever need to touch my windows pc again. I'm getting a 60GB iPod photo to go with the iMac so that can suit all my music needs too :devil: I'll try and post pics a.s.a.p

I don't really consider myself lucky, I worked my ass off for my eMac, 4g iPod 40 GB and JBL Creature II speakers. So it's not like they dropped out of the sky. :p

But thanks anyway! :)

I consider myself lucky...my G5 was a birthday present! (Altho my B&W HAD just been fried by a lightning strike [R.I.P.]..) OT, but does anyone know how much it costs for the latest version of Maya, particularly with an educational discount? I am going to Full Sail this April and will need it for the 3D animation degree....
